Description

RELATE APPLICATIONS

This application is a national phase entrance of and claims benefit to PCT Application for a cleaning tool, PCT/CN2015/071381, filed on Jan. 23, 2015, which claims benefit to Chinese Patent Applications 201410185680.9, filed on May. 5, 2014. The specifications of both applications are incorporated here by this reference.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a cleaning tool set.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART

Generally, a hand-pressed round spin mop (i.e., with a round mop head) includes a bucket and a rod, with a mop head which may have a wiper being provided at a lower end of the rod; the rod includes an inner rod and an outer rod at least partially over the inner rod, and a driving mechanism is disposed inside the outer rod and between the inner rod and the outer rod for converting a telescopic motion between the inner rod and an outer rod into a rotating motion of the rod; and a rotatable dewatering frame with a central shaft is provided within the bucket. During dewatering, the mop head is put in the dewatering frame, and the mop head is rotated for dewatering.
Although the hand-pressed round spin mop is used relatively conveniently, it is still less convenient than a flat mop (i.e., a mop with a flat mop head). Especially in cleaning corners and mopping along the wall, the round mop is more inconvenient. There are flat mop products in the prior art, for example, those provided in Chinese Invention Patent ZL201320275150.4 and the like.
However, at present, round mops are dominant in the market. This is mainly because a flat mop needs to be folded during dewatering, and since the folded flat mop head generates a certain height, if it is required to spin-dry the flat mop, the dewatering basket needs to be manufactured higher to receive the folded flat mop head, and meanwhile the height of the bucket body also needs to be increased accordingly to reserve a certain space below the dewatering basket for receiving the spun water while receiving the dewatering basket. Consequently, a longer flat mop head is manufactured at the expense of increasing the height of the bucket body. As a result, the bucket will become very huge and it will be very inconvenient for use. Thus, for the flat mops in the market, in order to reduce the container of the bucket body thereof, the length of the flat mop is sacrificed.

To enable a further understanding of the present invention content of the invention herein, refer to the detailed description of the invention and the accompanying drawings below:

Embodiment 1

FIG. 1-FIG. 7 show a first embodiment of the cleaning tool set. The cleaning tool set comprises a rod 2; a mop head 3 attached to the rod 2; a wiper attached to the mop head 3, the rod 2, the mop head 3, and the wiper forming a mop; and a bucket 1 for receiving the mop.
The rod 2 comprises an inner rod, an outer rod sleeved at least partially over the inner rod. The mop head 3 is connected at the lower end of the inner rod, and a drive mechanism 4 is disposed between the inner rod and the outer rod for converting a telescopic motion between the inner rod and an outer rod into a rotating motion of the rod 2 (if the inner rod is on the top while the outer rod is on the bottom, the mop head 3 is connected at the lower end of the outer rod and the telescopic motion of the rod 2 is converted into the rotating motion of the inner rod; however, in practices, it is basically impossible to employ a structure in which the inner rod is on the top while the outer rod is on the bottom). The specific structure form of the drive mechanism 4 belongs to the conventional means in the art and will not be repeated here.
The bucket 1 comprises at least one container 13, a rotatable dewatering frame 5 with a central shaft 6 disposed inside the at least one container 13. In this embodiment, the bucket 1 has only one container 13, and the bucket 1 itself is the container 13.

A driving gear 7 is disposed on the bottom surface of the dewatering frame 5. The water pumping device is an impeller pump, which includes a pump body 8. The pump body 8 has a pump chamber in communication with outside and an impeller 9 is disposed inside the pump chamber. A pump shaft is disposed in a center of the impeller 9. The pump shaft has a top extending out of a top of the pump body 8, and the pump shaft has a driven gear 10 on the top of the pump shaft, the driven gear 10 is engaged with the driving gear 7. The rotation of the dewatering frame 5 drives the driving gear 7 to rotate so as to drive the pump shaft and the impeller 9 to rotate through the driven gear 10, so that water pumping is realized and water can be drained through a water pumping pipe 11. The rotation of the dewatering frame 5 is driven by the drive mechanism 4. The way of driving the dewatering frame 5 by the drive mechanism 4 belongs to the conventional means in the art and this function can be realized by existing cleaning tools, and thus will not be repeated here.
To pump water out completely, the water pumping device is located on the bottom of the bucket 1. In other words, the pump body 8 is located on the bottom of the bucket 1. The bottom of the pump body 8 can be extended downward to form a downward extension drum 12, and an opening is formed on the downward extension drum 12, so that water is pumped out through the opening.

A row of water outlets can be provided on the bottom of a side wall of the bucket 1. Plugs 14 are provided within the water outlets. The water outlets are plugged by the plugs 14 when water pumping is not required.

When a gear pump, a displacement pump or the like is used, as described in this embodiment, it is also possible to rotate the dewatering frame 5 so as to transfer power into the pump through the drive mechanism 4. The form of the drive mechanism 4 can be a gear drive mechanism as described in this embodiment, or can be other power transmission mechanisms. The designs of such a drive mechanism can be easily realized by those skilled in the art, and will not be enumerated.
In this embodiment, an impeller pump is used, and thus, the water pumping device is located within the bucket body. Of course, a self-priming pump or the like can also be used. In this case, the water pumping device can be mounted outside the bucket body.
